Price Paid:  $66.00 at ebay.co.uk

Favorite Ride:
Every on

Bike Setup:
Alu frame w. Cat Claws, FSA crankset, Speedplay X2, Bontrager Lite, Easton bar, Look HSC3 fork, Shimano 9-sp. levers + front shft.

Summary:
The design is typical Shimano: High tech blended w. functionality. The carbon sole is the best thing about the shoe, it's stiff. The straps are rather wide and placed in a way that will not comfort every foot. The buckle can be a little deficult to fiddle with but the quick release is ok.

Strengths:
Design, functionality. Ventilation.

Weaknesses:
Finish on soles is easily damaged. "Italian fit": Especially the toes are quite narrow. The screws of the SPD-system is (slightly) felt through the insole.

Similar Products Used:
Diadora Carbon bla-bla, Sidi Dominator, Specialized Road Team Pro.
